What Cheer; Or, Roger Williams in Banishment: A Poem

by Job Durfee

Of barbarous camps, and savage chiefs who sing

The song of vengeance to their raptured train;

Of councils, and of wizard priests that bring

Strange omens, dark dominion to maintain;

Of incantations dire, and of that spell

By Sesek wrought—which seemed the feat of Hell.
